Plantation Extreme NO.3 Jamaica Long Pond HJC 22-Year

Nice and complex aroma. First taste is wood and heavy tones followed by stronger kick. Longer and bitter aftertaste. Not so much burning - during first blind taste my tip was 49% but reality is higher (56%)

Solid sour tropical fruit notes with cloves. Nice and complex aroma.

A good rum but more robust than the for me perfect softer ITP version which is my personal favorite in the same price class.

Jättebra men inte så "Jamaikansk" som jag gillar, för vällagad. Supergod såklart, men inte så "funkig".

N- Solid sour tropical fruit notes with cloves, drips of Apple Vinegar that keep molasses in check from being too sweet nor syrupy. Charmingly bright and light but not weak. More sweet floral scents developed with plum and lasting nuances of moist wood and white stone fruits mashed. (23/25)

P- Dash of apple vinegar again, follow by attacks of dry and aggressive oak with hot clove. Vanilla and tropical fruits underlay that balanced things up. Echoing molasses with good strength coating, entertaining but seems goes off rather quickly. (21/25)

F- Medium-long, less drying and also do not last the length that I had thought. Clean, estery, not very complex, but is from Long Pond. Pleasure is still there. (22/25)

B/B- 22/25, +1 for rarity.
